Short keywords got no reason to live...

I wanted to review threads about smartphone GPS apps.
Used the search engine on: ios gps app
Surprise! All these search terms are "too short / too common" to search for!
I can use iPhone instead of IOS.
I can use application instead of app, but I can guarantee you it won't appear in any posts.
Ain't no way I can make GPS any longer than GPS.
Sure would be nice to have a "search dammit" button to override this.

We do have that "search dammit" button. It's called https://www.google.com/ Just search for "Keystone Forum and your string of 3 letter terms"

You'll also get hits from the Airstream forum, the Forest River forum, the IRV2 forum, Apple forum as well as the Montana Owners forum... Take you pick of "which search dammit" you want to check out.... They're all there

That wasn't a bad idea. I searched for
iPhone gps app site:keystoneforums.com
Unfortunately, every page of the site contains the string "RV GPS App" on the very top header line, so Google (which indexes pages, not threads) gives me every page where somebody mentions an iPhone.

I'll put you in for a full refund on your forum dues.

Try using this: "iPhone gps app site" on keystoneforums.com

Note the quotation marks. They are required to isolate the search criteria from the location. Might help define the parameters for you.

Oh, and Marshall did request the refund of your forum dues. I got the request, approved it and sent it to the accounting department. You should see the refund in your next credit card statement. It won't be a 100% refund as your dues are annual and your start date is Feb 9. So the refund will be for the remaining period, not the entire year.

If you don't receive your refund in a timely manner, you can contact accounting. Their PM address can be found using the "search dammit" key on your search screen.
